Asked by Hildo Guillardi Júnior

For diagnostic purposes, what is the output of the commands

uname -a
lsb_release -crid
apt-cache policy kicad

You should be aware that the latest nightly build for Ubuntu 16.04 failed.

see https://launchpad.net/~js-reynaud/+archive/ubuntu/ppa-kicad/+packages?field.name_filter=kicad&field.status_filter=&field.series_filter=xenial

all recent build of kicad for xenial have failed, the latest successful one is 201807270649+0cca1c6~65~ubuntu16.04.1 which you already have.

(I do not know anything about the version number of pcbnew.py)
